TableRow span not working for dynamically added rows

Question

I have the following problem spanning dynamically added rows to a TableLayout inside a scroll view. The rows follow this pattern:

Row 1: Cell spanned over the whole

Answer 1

OK, I found the solution. It was simply to drop the TableRow tag for the row that I wanted to span across the table.

table_span_row.xml

I do not know what will happen if I had 3 columns instead and wanted to span one of the cells on two of them :)
